Student government is dead, says
the executive slate candidates of the
Active Communications Together
party, and they suggest that their
student corporation replace it.
Tne wheels of student activities
would run more smoothly if greased
by using business procedures, states
the ACT platform.
ACT is one of four parties in the
ASUN election, to be held one week
from today,
"ACT views ASUN as a student
corporation," states the party
platform.
Every student is a member of this
corporation, ACT says, md buys stock
in it every semester through University
Program end Facility Fes$. ACT says it
views the ASUN Senate not as a
legislative body, but as "the board of
directors who determine how ASUsTs
revenues may be sp-2.it to best benefit
the members of the corporation."
Todd McDaniel is the ACT
candidate for president. Sharing the
ACT banner are Marti Ochsner,
candidate for first vice president, and
Norm Brown, candidate for second
vice president.
"Tangible services" for the student
are what ACT promises in its party
platform. ACT states that it will work
in the areas of student services,
advocacy, communication, and also
envisions some reform of ASUN
Senate and for its committees.
The party's name points toward
one of the party's major concerns:
letting students know what is
happening in the ASUN Senate and
getting information from students
back to senators.
McDaniel, the chairman of the
ASUN liaison program during the past
year, h3S had the duty of arranging
ASUN's lines of communication with
students.
The primary concern of students on
campus today is their living
condition-both on and off campus.
McDaniel said in art interview Tuesday.
McDaniel, who lives in the Delta
Upsilon fraternity house, said ho
believed that students are first
concerned about determining their
own living conditions and, at the same
time, "fesl helpless because they can't
get anything changed" He ranked
academic quality of ihe univeimy ts
next In the list of student concerns.
Tha ACT platform answers those,
concerns by supporting the CSL
differentiated housing proposal, .
LB7S3 the legislative bill that wou!d -sSSow
tn consumption and sale of.'
alcoho! on campus, and continuing the
litigation of the Residence Hall
Assoc.-ASUN lawsuit against the
Beard of Regents challenging visitation
policies if th .present suit is defeated.
ACT says it promises to create a
landlord-tenant resource center, which
would hsve information on ail
apartments for rent in tha Lincoln
community. Tenant evaluations of -both
apartments and landlords, model -leases
and information about legal
routes open to students with landlord
problems also would be avaiiabia in
. the center, the platform states.
Support for the ASUN Book
Exchange, student supported
scholarships such as PACE, the
Associated Student Ko-op, the Legal
Aid to Students program and the Free
University is expressed in the
platform.
ACT pledges that it will seek to
make tha lawyers more svaibbie to
students by increasing the emount of
their office hours.
The party states that it will seek to
publish a "comprehensive publication
containing class descriptions and
student evaluations of faculty and
course offerings."
Under the' advocacy section of the
platform, ACT suggests adopting a
'central advising system for each
college . . . consisting of a full-time
advising staff with students supplied
through work-study programs as
advisers."
Although it does not have a married
student in its party, ACT says it
" iMAn vackV irrvr e rv4v! sat
-J... r- r- - -
married student housing and tha infant
and child day care centers. .
ACT says ' the state of Nebraska
should institute state financial aid
programs for its college students and
also pledges to lobby for the
constitutional amendment which
would place students on the Board of
. Regents. .' ,
The constitutional amendment to
restructure ASUN does not receive
ACT's support of ACT, which suggests
that a constitutional convention be
called instead.
A debate among the. four, parties is
scheduled for Thursday in the
Nebraska Union at 12:30 p.m.
